Back in 1998 this author (then a 40–year–old), wrote a piece called: Mr. President, Tear Down That Grid! I postal mailed it to Bill Clinton at the White House. Oddly, I never got any replies ;–). The summary of it was to bring about the eventual end of the (US national) E–Grid, breaking it up so that there were no more long distribution lines; that by law, all electricity must be generated within a dozen or so miles, from point of generation to the plug. The already aging system was a fire hazard; that later proved to be a fact.
The problem with electricity production is mainly an expansive E–Grid; it is a gluttonous resource Leviathan itself (see video at the end). The E–Grid is the single largest user of power nationally; the next 15,000 largest post–metered users combined, still does not equal the E–Grid, using 20% of all electricity generated.
The other 80% are from
customers rated in post–metered usage. The fossil fuels, especially coal, that the E–Grid alone is responsible for consuming, dwarfs all other non–transportation and non–military uses.
As with many other things, what this centralization of power does, is provide ownership and/or control of that production; it creates dependency. If everyone produced their own power, there would be no "profit in perpetuity" to enrich the few, at the expense of virtually everyone else: Big–E! And that is the paradigm of the death cult called capitalism: Exploitation via dependency, in the devout service of money, and to do so at all cost; even Earth and all life dependent upon it.
Everywhere that the subject of electricity generation takes place, one thing is never brought up; eliminating the E–Grid all together. It is always (and only) about how the generation is taking place, at the source, or how it is being consumed.
Why is that? After all, the only real problem with how electrical generation takes place, is the E–Grid itself. So why ignore this proverbial bull in the china cabinet? Wealth hoarding! The capitalist's monikers: Profit Before People & Profit Before Planet!
Dependency is really just a form of addiction; and that is what the E–Grid is. All talk about generating electricity, always includes the E–Grid; it is just an assumed necessity, and that is intentional. But like all dependency/addiction, it keeps users forever dependent upon them to supply electrical power, daily and always.
But with the E–Grid being the largest consumer of electricity, it is the primary ecological problem, regardless of what feeds it; fossil fuels including coal,
unnatural gas (etc.), or
nuclear, or even renewables. In fact, the "power plant" only exists because of the E–Grid.
This is the way people get stuck when discussing electricity generation; the assumption that a national grid is necessary; it is not. A grid only concentrates the power to small groups of the capitalistic wealthmongers who would poison the entire sum of the human species for just one more dollar.
All reasonably educated people already know that eliminating the grid altogether is a provably sustainable first start. But placing all power production in the hands of every individual, takes it out of the Profiteer Corporations.
But Profiteer Corporations do not like this being exposed, because they make buckets of money from dependency. So they must (and do) have an army of misinformation peddlers (humans and bots) to give the impression that {1} a grid is necessary, and that {2} the sources of electricity production must be mega–sights feeding that grid.
Simpletons will drink the cultural Kool–Aid of misinformation promoting nuclear, because it is unnecessary if there were no mega–sights. It is the success of that cultural Kool–Aid via the sheer number of gullible people that is so terrifying. It exposes itself in literally everything.
The
Union of Concerned Scientists (and others) are ignored by the masses, who do not believe in science for the most part; they will accept whatever science supports their mythical worldviews, but the rest is ignored or condemned.
Confirmation Bias is a powerful force indeed.
But the million–year–lasting piles of pollution that already exists, just from the mining of plutonium, uranium and so on, will soon be dwarfed by the waste coming from power plants. Eventually all of that will be spread globally by nuclear war; Satan will use his humans to bring about the Big Burn:
First By Flood Then By Fire!
If cleanup and protecting health were included in the cost of nuclear power, it would be a thousand–fold more expensive than it is now. The profiteers are indeed, kicking that proverbial can down the road to future generations, and this is why we know that the Eschaton Era is here and is very real. Humans will not survive this radioactive hell that Earth is prophesied to become.
This is (in part) why the US cannot have Universal Health Care Coverage; for one, it is more profitable for individual's of the wealth–class who are currently making billions from the current Capitalist system, to keeps the status quo, but more so, because most well–educated people know that the amount of long–term sickness being created on the continent for the currently young, and especially all future humans who are not insulated with wealth, will be catastrophic.
Nonetheless, there are many ways to live on a planet, besides the current grotesquely gluttonous Earth–based systems.
GHP systems, passive and active solar–powered systems, and
wind turbines, all provide at–home alternatives to the E–Grid. It is realistic to have an all–electric home with ultra–conservative appliances, and then use e–scooters, e–bikes (and other upcoming
micro–mobile options), for most transportation needs, charged up at home. Fossil fuel free living is already happening.
Rather than investing any more into the US E–Grid, we could take that same money and put (
the current overstock of) solar panels on nearly very building on the continent; then add to that portable wind mills; use geothermal where it is cost–viable; and most importantly, invent ways to use far less with hyper–efficiency paradigms. But inhumans cannot think in human terms; they are horrifyingly trapped in serving money. Therefore, it is all profits and costs, today.
As with Big Car, Big Oil and Big Road (or Big Contract; Politicians pocketing billions over the decades), Big–E and all who profit from all that exists therein, work collectively to covertly push the blame onto others. Getting the masses to fight one another, all the while, the wealth–class milk them dry; this has been one of the longest running con within the human condition: Ponzi Economics. No wonder they think most people are gullible: There is observable truth to it.
But the bulk of humanity are not intelligent; moneymaking and the personal power it creates, drives most humans; the other tenth–of–a–percent of us, look upon it in horror. It is pride–ego–emotion that Satan masturbates the masses with, which keeps the masses gullible and ignorant, even while being formally educated, or just an award from the anything goes school, SocialMedia.edu!
In part, non–intelligence is the cause of Personal Greenwashing. Just as
corporate greenwashing is becoming a major business advertising investment to cloak activities, so too, do consumers mentally green wash, making them equally culpable. The millennia–old Tobacco Industry has made zero dollars from this consumer, because I do not buy from them.
To believe one has no choice but to financially enable any business, is itself a sign of gullibility. And that mentality causes
cognitive dissonance, and with social media, such dissonance exposes itself in bouts of public anger, where blame–shifting and finger–pointing reign.
The problem is always the same; since only a fraction of the human species can see much beyond their own very tiny world (see
Enculturation), trying to teach them something they would need a dozen decades as full–time students, just to comprehend; well, suffice it to say, humans are doomed!
We live on a planet overrun by people who cannot and do not Love, nor can they even comprehend Love, for Love is the great mystery. The consequence of that is literally, all that can be seen and measured on Earth. But, that requires Spiritual sight. Love is to live as if everyone is your child; that Earth is the Lord's and you are merely its steward passing through. The fulfilling of Love is Do No Harm!
As for fossil fuels, we should
leave it in the ground; allow progeny access to it. We know that there "should" be future generations of humans; that Earth can support humans for another million generations. But all–too–many people, demonstrate they do not want their progeny to have their share of fossil fuels.
What will they do if we wipe out all (or the bulk of) the non–renewable natural resources on Earth? The answer is simple; they just do not care. Consumerism and/or wealth–hoarding are failed attempts at filling a Spiritual void with material things; so far it is at a 100% failure rate. Satan owns the human masses; it is why they side with politicians and CEO's who want to drill–drill–drill & burn–burn–burn baby!
Satan's people are working overtime, trying feverishly to extract all the global
nonrenewable fossil fuel reserves, as fast as they possibly can. This unnecessary but passionate rush, is centerpiece of/to the latter stages of the Eschaton Era. They must know that
those reserves should go to the trillions of possible future generations that could have existed (say) between 2100 AD and 21,000,000 AD.
But these, as Satan's people, demonstrate that they are demon oppressed (or perhaps even demon possessed) by the demonic hoards that Satan is guiding, through his willing human hosts. Satan and the demon hoards are not physical, so they cannot do anything themselves on Earth; humans do all of Satan's work. And like germs once were, simpletons think that if they cannot see them, they are not real.
Satan is destroying Earth; Scripture has already labeled it a doomed world, at least for a healthy human population over millennia–future. It has already happened; ancient prophets were given visions of the late 20th to the late 21st century's; to them is was dystopian; they witnessed what will happen. It cannot be stopped, because technically, it has already happened: All who are trapped in spacetime will bring it into being.
The E–Grid is completely unnecessary, as is the
Car Cult; cars are the single greatest danger to all life, present and future. Cars are new to the human experience: Humans survived for many millennia without cars. We need food and clothing and homes, and unconventional Smart Homes are self–powered.
The wealth–class rule everything, and reign over everyone, and have been doing so for over 2 millennia, so it will ultimately be up to them. Guess how that turns out? Pledges for change (including but not exclusive to greenwashing) are proclaimed publicly to appeal to some sect of society, typically to generate more revenue; tourism, investment, etc. It will of course, never happen: Ever, not even a century from now.
How could it? We as a species, will be at the beginning of real change, starting a decade after the continental E–Grid has been dismantled and recycled, all remaining fossil fuels are left in the ground, and the Car Cult is gone. All power must be generated at or near the source of use,for it is transmitting that's inefficient.
But this will drive the manufacturers of things like refrigerators, HVAC equipment, and other more necessary items, to run on a fraction of the power they currently consume. A modern house uses about 75% of what an older house once used; we need to see that drop considerably via technology, but especially by
Simple Living.
We must create local power plants that would run an Industry Park, inside that park, using solar, wind, hydro and geothermal; and in combos when and where possible, with highly efficient
LPG back–up generators as supplement in rare events.
The Car Cult must end; all
Asphalt roadways would be recycled; those already carved out pathways, reused or replaced with elevated Mag–lift type, short and long–range travel, returning the bulk of Earth's surface to its garden state.
The solutions are easy; I could easily teach all of this to grade–school kids who would totally get it. However, getting egocentric power–hungry and greed–blinded adults, to let go of their habitual ways, is massively difficult. Pride is the greatest force in the Cosmos!
The wealth–class, who have been converting Earth into dollars to hoard for self–empowerment (mostly hydrocarbons or precious metals), will surely want to continue to ravage this planet for personal gain: This madness must be stopped. But it won't! Not by the power of humans alone.
The planetary (especially non–renewable) natural resources, should belong to the entirety of the human species, hundreds of human generations into the future. But there are those with the god–complex who are convinced that all planetary resources, belong only to them, because after all, they are gods.
And this is because they have the investment money for extraction, which gives them this self belief. Money hunger is power hunger, which is evidence of demon oppression; the fall of Satan and crew was over power hunger.
If Earth could support it (and it won't), this planetary rape would continue unabated for millennia. This is not mere human greed; all mammals are intrinsically aware of habitat limitations,and adjust accordingly.
Only humans operate in disregard for theirs, and thus, it is an anti–natural display. Most humans are unwittingly driven; it's seemingly paranormal or supernatural causes or forces.
